It is an odd year when the oak leaves turn before the maples 🙂 This is a particulary exposed oak branch, low on sapling at the edge of the Bridle Path here in Kennebunk, Maine. OM Systems OMD EM5Mkiii with 12-45mm zoom at 24mm equivalent. In-camera HDR scene mode.

Along the edge of the Kennebunk Plains…these are always among the first trees to reach full color…not quite yet, but getting there. OM Systems OMD EM5Mkiii with 12-45mm Pro zoom at 78mm equivalent. In-camera HDR scene mode. Processed in Pixomator Pro.

A long time ago they built a road across the Little River Marsh to get to the beach and formed this pond. The road is closed to vehicles these days, and probably has not been used for anything but farm traffic for a generation or more, maybe not since horse-drawn days, but the pond remains.

Fall is coming! This wet maple forest is right next to the marsh just inland from the sea, so it will be a while before peek foliage…but already the tallest maples are touched by fall. OM Systems OMD EM5Mkiii with 12-45mm Pro zoom at 24mm equivalent. In-camera HDR mode. Processed in Pixomator Pro.

Little River Marsh from the overlook at Laudholm Farms, Wells, Maine, USA, September 2023 — OM Systems OMD EM5MKiii with 12-45mm Pro zoom at 24mm equivalent. HDR Scene mode. Processed in Pixelmator Pro. Nominal exposure: ISO 200 @ f10 @ 1/400th. (4 shots combined in camera).

High waters in the Mousam above Old Falls Pond. From the bridge. OM Systems OMD EM5Mkiii with the 12-45mm Pro at 24mm equivalent. In-camera HDR. Nominal exposure: ISO 200 @ f8 @ 1/250th.

Just something to celebrate the end of the week! Colors and light of fast approaching fall. This is Back Creek near where it flows into the Mousam River in Kennebunk Maine. In-camera HDR with the OM Systems OMD EM5Mkiii and the 12-45mm Pro zoom at 24mm equivalent. HDR scene mode. Nominal exposure: ISO 200 @ f9 @ 1/320th. Processed in Pixomator Pro.

Rain all day today, pretty much, so here is a shot from last week, just before Lee arrived off-shore. Fall coming on, and one of my favorite views around home. OM Systems EM5Miii with 12-45mm Pro zoom at 24mm equivalent. In camera HDR mode. Processed in Pixelmator Pro. Nominal exposure: ISO 200 @ f9 @ 1/320th.

As Lee churns up the Atlantic, it is producing some interesting weather and some great skies. This was the day before yesterday, looking south and and a bit west down the coast.

One of my favorite local views. This is along the Bridle Path inland from Rt. 9. Testing HDR on the new to me OMD E-M5iii with the 12-45mm zoom at 24mm equivalent. The in-camera HDR mode (in the Scene Modes) seems to produce a nice understated effect. This particular scene can be hard because of the dark pines and maples this time of year, but I am happy with this. 🙂 Good thing. Processed in Pixelmator Pro.
